WOO! How have the ratings been holding up, Vidae? Honestly, the way The Event has been tanking I think Chuck might be around for a while. Until NBC figures out their other big program on Monday night, I really don't see how they can axe Chuck.

Also I just want to point out when Casey picked Morgan up by the neck I was laughing SO hard. It was amazing.

The rating have not been outstanding but they have remained consistent while so many new shows have just bombed. Its a cheap show to produce and it consistently pulls rating in an absolutley abysmal timeslot. I think NBC realizes that with all the **** ratings all the other shows pull, that Chuck isn't a terrible show to keep running.

You're right. Chuck has been steady three weeks in a row at 1.9. 1.9 is bad, but against the competition it has (DWTS, CBS comedies, MNF, House) is it consistently consistent, and consistent is the new hotness.

NBC picked up The Event for an additional 9 as well. It leveled off this week at a 2.2, which isn't good either, but it's not as bad as Chase or Undercovers. I'm not sure what NBC is thinking, but it's clear that Chuck is in their future.

The good thing about Chuck fans is that they're fans and they're eyeballs on the TV at the same time regardless of what is on. We're a loyal bunch and NBC is rewarding that loyalty.

And best line of the season so far: "You break her heart, I'll break your EVERYTHING."

More Chuck can only be a good thing. I think this season has been much better than the last couple, seems to have gone back more towards being a bit of goofball fun and not taking itself so serious which is great.

The Event was steady last week at 2.2, which is a pretty bad fall from the 3.6, but the rest of their freshman lineup has tanked.

I don't want a show to do poorly, but Chase and Undercovers have helped Chuck stay on the air for sure, and Outlaws was flat out canceled already. They're burning off the rest of the episodes on saturday night.
